PHOENIX--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ON Semiconductor (Nasdaq: ON), driving energy efficiency innovations,
has introduced a highly integrated single chip power
bank solution for the development of next generation Li-Ion powered
products. The LC709501F total Li-Ion battery solution offers broad power
and voltage/current output range of 5 volt (V), 9 V and 12 V operation,
with a maximum charge/discharge capability of up to 30 watts (W) through
simple FET selection.

The LC709501F determines what type of device is connected and
automatically selects the fastest available method for charging.
Advanced users can even reprogram the LC709501F to support custom
charge/discharge profiles, as well as USB Type-C and PD "Policy Engine"
functions. This single-chip solution includes integrated fuel
gauge function, configurable I/O, LED drivers, I2C interface, and
pre-drivers for external power MOSFETs, providing system flexibility. A
design reference kit is available to realize fast time to market. The
LC709501F supports various output power levels up to 30 W, by changing
external MOSFETs. In addition, there is an integrated USB 2.0 Full Speed
host controller.

The LC709501F’s USB host controller supports connectivity with iOS and
Android apps that enable the device to communicate with the connected
smartphone and subsequently make use of its display to show information
concerning the battery health and the charging process (charging time,
battery life, number of charging cycles completed, etc.). The device
works with the proprietary charging protocols (such as Fast Charge and
Qualcomm® Quick Charge™) now being utilized by smartphone manufacturers
to accelerate the charging period. To ensure operational longevity,
over-current, over-voltage, and redundant battery protection mechanisms
are all included, as well as a thermistor for monitoring of temperature
levels. The LC709501F supports an operational temperature range of -40
°C to +85 °C.

“With a growing need for on-the-go recharging of portable electronics,
power banks are certain to become more prevalent over the coming years,”
states Matthew Tyler, Director Strategy and Product Roadmap Definition
of the Digital and DC/DC Division at ON Semiconductor. “Accurate and
reliable charge capacity indication and the ability to support the
latest quick charging standards are becoming more critical, especially
as power bank capacities have grown over time. The level of
sophistication that power banks possess is destined to increase, so that
batteries can be replenished as quickly as possible and inconvenience is
minimized. The new, best-in-class LC709501F charger will enable the
creation of compact, highly efficient, feature-rich power banks that
will simplify and accelerate time to market of next generation power
bank solutions. Its breadth of functionality will enhance the user
experience and mean that high degrees of safety are maintained.”

Packaging and Pricing

The LC709501F is offered in a QFN-52 (6 x 6 mm) package and priced at
$2.80 per unit in 10,000 unit quantities.
